Re: SotD Thursday 25 January

-10 degrees C and windy here today. Have a rendez-vous with my Danish dentist today. Don´t understand a word of what he´s saying, so it´s always exciting to sit in that chair and watch all those scary things he puts in my mouth.

Djuna,
hello from a live long Cabochard addict ) Femme/Rochas and Cabochard where my first "signature" fragrances escorting me since 1960! Reformulated then, anyway I am really happy they were never discontinued.

Today I am wearing ORRIS/Tauer, actually this week I am living in a sort of "Tauer delirium"... According to perfumer Andy Tauer, his goal "was to create a scent that captures the iris note and plays with it, brings out its erotic line and its dark woody, almost leathery quality."

"Like a lobster with a pearl in its claw, the beet held the jasmine firmly without crushing or obscuring it. Beet lifted jasmine, the way a bullnecked partner lifts a ballerina, and the pair came on stage on citron's fluty cue. As if jasmine were a collection of beautiful paintings, beet hung it in the galleries of the nose, insured it against fire or theft, threw a party to celebrate it. Citron mailed the invitations."

Testing out Blvgari Omnia today and think I will like this very much in warmer weather, but now I need a bit more "oomph," so layered on one wrist and elbow (hear that, Moondeva?) with Etro Etra. Mmmmmmmm!

It’s thought that people who hope too much will just waste their life away and never get down to doing any real work. They’re confusing Hope with Wish, its lazy cousin... When Wish whispers, “Something is just around the corner,” what comes or not is never what was wished for. When Hope whispers “Something is just around the corner,” something always is. -- Charlie Elberson

Re: SotD Thursday 25 January

I guess I got too excited and showed up for the Omnia party a day too soon . I wore it yesterday. In the evening I layered it with Tea for Two and found myself feeling just so astounded by the beauty of those two together. In the end for bed time I sprayed on a good few sprays of Kenneth Cole New York; hadn’t worn in for quite some time, I forgot how beautiful it was.

Today I’m wearing Euphoria, I bought this bottle, oh about 3-4 months ago and I’m spraying form it for the first time today . I remember why I bought it too; I just love that jammy, dark, warmth of it.

Re: SotD Thursday 25 January

Day off, so I'm doing "exciting things"..going for an oil change, grocery shopping...but tonight I plan to start a new quilting project, so I wore something to carry me safely through the mundane aspects of the day and keep me feeling good and inspired!
